It is easier to get creative with wedding venues and decor during the winter days, whether it is daytime wedding or a night time celebration.

Express love for velvet and silk freely 

Winters are a perfect time to bring out the rich silk and velvet wears. Whether you are getting married or attending one, feel free to explore the royal fabrics and heavy embroideries. It is not only a perfect way to save yourself from the chilly weather, but also don them freely without worrying about heat and sweat.

Cons

High booking costs

Most weddings in the country happen during this time of the year, and vendors tend to get booked quickly. You will need to book much in advance, and even if you get your dream venue, you might have to pay more, as vendors generally raise their prices during the busy season due to a high demand. Popular spots, sometimes, are reserved 6-12 months in advance!

In some parts of the country, the possibility of severe cold increases as you roll into the winter months. If extreme cold weather continues, the chances of your guests turning up at the venue might become a challenge, which might cause a lot of wastage of food and money.

Dreading the backless and sleeveless

Ladies, if you love showcasing your shapely arms, flat bellies, and spotless backs in all the short and backless cholis, then you might have to re-think of choosing the winter season to have a wedding or attending one. You might brave the chill with your fashion determination, but will you be able to sustain that brave smile all night long?

Exam time

Since we are mentioning all the pros and cons, we just couldn’t leave this one out. Winter is the exam season in the country, for almost all schools and colleges. This can be a problem for the younger cousins and relatives with young kids, as most people tend to skip the weddings.
